Frank Family Cabernet Sauvignon (750Ml)

Frank Family Vineyards makes this Cabernet Sauvignon in Napa Valley, California. Rich Frank, a former president of Disney Studios, founded the winery in 1992. The family now farms more than 380 acres across the valley. Over the years the winery has earned a strong name for high-quality wines.

Home base is the stone Larkmead Winery building, first built in 1884. It is the third oldest winery in Napa. It is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The wine is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, with small parts of Merlot and Petit Verdot. The exact blend shifts with each vintage. Fruit comes from estate sites like Benjamin Vineyard in Rutherford and S&J Vineyard in Capell Valley. Trusted neighboring growers add the rest. It then ages in French oak, about one third of it new. Most vintages sit near 14.5% alcohol.

Pour a glass and cassis, dark berry and cocoa come up first, with a hint of tobacco. The palate is full-bodied yet supple. Coffee bean, clove, nutmeg and toasted oak build as it opens. Fine, sweet tannins carry you into a long and elegant finish.

Critics like it too. James Suckling gave the 2022 vintage 92 points. Wine Advocate and Vinous each scored the 2018 at 91. Open a bottle with grilled steak, roast lamb or braised short ribs. A wedge of aged cheddar works nicely as well.
